OK, OK, calm down. I only made a passing remark, and I tried to say
that it wasn't meant to start a row; but nevertheless it was, I
think, worth making in the context: there was a genuine confusion
being caused by the DL/logic distinction, and it was germane to the
topic.
(I have to say, you DL folk are *extraordinarily* touchy and
defensive. Particularly the ones from Bell Labs. )

You speak here, I take it, as the person who is planning to produce
an 'axiomatic semantics' for OWL, ie a translation of OWL into logic?
But I didn't in any case for a moment mean to suggest that we should
be changing anything, only to express regret that we didn't do things
better in the first place.
